Historically, putting together a cohesive and easy-to-use testing solution for javascript projects has been difficult. In this course, you will learn how the Intern testing platform provides a complete solution for testing your applications.

Testing javascript code has traditionally involved putting together a set of libraries to build a complete testing solution. This course, Intern 4: Getting Started, covers Intern 4, a testing platform that incorporates best-in-class components to provide a complete testing solution out of the box. First, you will learn how the Intern project is structured and how it integrates many of the best testing component libraries to provide a world-class testing solution. You will then explore Intern's testing capabilities by learning about how to create unit and functional tests. Finally, you will break out of the boundaries of your development machine and incorporate cloud testing platforms into your tests, ensuring that your applications work across all the browsers and operating systems that your customers use. When you are done with this course, you will know how to create unit and functional tests to ensure that your applications perform as expected, and be able to easily run those tests against all the environments that your users have available.
